Packers Rally Past Steelers 35-25

The Green Bay Packers rallied from a 16-7 halftime deficit to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 35-25 Sunday night in Pittsburgh, improving to 5-1-1 and remaining atop the NFC. Jordan Love completed 29 of 37 passes for 360 yards and three touchdowns, including a streak of 20 consecutive completions, while tight end Tucker Kraft had seven catches for 143 yards and two touchdowns. Green Bay totaled 454 yards of offense with no turnovers or sacks allowed and dominated the second half with a 28-9 run that included five straight scoring drives. Analysts praised the performance as the team's best game yet, and oddsmakers moved the Packers into the top Super Bowl contenders and made them favorites to win the NFC North. Critics, including Stephen A. Smith, urged caution because the win came against a struggling Steelers defense, and several accounts noted the crowd in Pittsburgh felt neutral due to a large contingent of Packers fans.
